British veterans discard medals in disgust at UK strikes in Syria

British military veterans have discarded their service medals at the Prime Minister’s street in London in protest at the government’s decision to extend its so-called war on terror to Syria.

A group of former soldiers, who had served in the Persian Gulf War, Iraq, Afghanistan, and Libya, made the symbolic gesture outside 10 Downing Street on Tuesday to express their “utter disgust” at “unlawful” bombing of the Middle Eastern country by the Royal Air Force (RAF), the Guardian reported.
